The long awaited Netflix document Tour de France: Unchained, finally hit the screens this week. EF Education-EasyPost owner, Jonathan Vaughters talks about his expectations for the series and his own team's plans for next Tour de France in the team's podcast.
"This isn't a series that will be anything surprising to hardcore fans. Hardcore fans already know a lot of what's going on. But for people who casually watch the sport, I think this actually provides the true feel of how incredibly difficult this sport is and how truly incredible these athletes are."
"I don't want cycling to forever be a niche sport. I want it to grow and become a sport that is more popular amongst a broader group."
"We're always going to be a team that does things in a different way. That's not going to change. But I don't know specifically how that's going to be this year. I mean, obviously our tactics will be considerably different than they were last year because it's a different team."

On a different note; very excited for everyone to check out the @netflix series on professional cycling that is available for download tomorrow. For all you Anglophones, I highly recommend the subtitled version vs voice over. Don’t worry, lots of English speaking too.
